What Different Picture Has Shown Up for You?

Bike rides on the two paved trails
About 15 miles from home.
Cannon Valley Trail & Sakatah Trail.
Great finale for 2021 Trail pedaling.

Different views show up since
Trees and bushes are mostly leafless.

Lengths of trail with overarching branches;
Earlier appearing as leafy green tunnels,
Now show “basic” structure.
Like cathedral beams meeting
At top of ceiling.

Are we like that?
With basic cathedral-like structure,
Often obscured by what we use to
Make a different picture?

Each is beautiful & a delight to experience.
Hooray, trees!
For reminding me of
Basic beauty.

Limerick:
The lessons exposed when I’m riding,
With shapes that appear out of hiding,
Remind me, there’s more
To know and adore —
The picture that this view’s providing.

Hugs,
Lin
